Thanksgiving Chickens

When visiting grandma and grandpa (who Megan calls papa), we went to a farm to see some little chickens. Megan screamed and pointed with excitement but got nervous when getting too close. The only way she would touch one was for me to pet it, then she would touch it. Then she told me to pet it again and then she touched it. It was very cute.

Feeding mommy dinner

I ate my zucchini tonight just after Megan finished her dinner. She insisted on sitting on my lap so I picked her up. She put her toy spoon in the bowl and as usual hated the taste. But then she decided she wanted to feed me from my fork. She fed me the entire bowl with her fork and her hands. I was having a hard time not laughing because she was shoveling in the food so quickly. When I was done she grabbed a wipe to clean my hands, face and the table where I had eaten. It was so adorable!

Swim Class

Megan started taking swim classes again. She didn't like being in the water at first but then got used to it. Here are some pictures.

Holding on to the rail and kicking isn't very fun



Thowing a toy and swimming after it is a lot of fun. I like the orange starfish
